Abstract

Plants in the genus Syzygium have been widely used as traditional medicine, fruit crops, and ornamental trees. In this study, we reported the complete chloroplast genome of Syzygium jambos (L.) Alston which was known as rose apple. The chloroplast genome of this species is 158541 bp in length, including a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRs) (26076 bp) that is divided by a large single copy area (LSC) (88036 bp) and a small single copy area (SSC) (18353 bp). The circular chloroplast genome of S. jambos contains 132 unique genes, composing of 85 protein-coding genes, 39 tRNA genes and 8 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis indicates that S. jambos is clustered with species in genus Syzygium. This complete chloroplast genome of S. jambos will provide a powerful tool to accelerate breeding, biotechnological and phylogenetic study.

摘要

蒲桃属的植物已被广泛用作传统药物，果农和观赏树木。在这项研究中，我们报道了被称为玫瑰苹果的Syzygium jambos（L.）Alston的完整叶绿体基因组。该物种的叶绿体基因组长度为158541 bp，包括一对反向重复区域（IRs）（26076 bp），该区域被大的单拷贝区域（LSC）（88036 bp）和小的单拷贝区域（SSC）分开）（18353 bp）。果酱的环状叶绿体基因组包含132个独特基因，由85个蛋白质编码基因，39个tRNA基因和8个rRNA基因组成。系统发育分析表明，S. jambos与Syzygium属中的物种聚集。。Jambos的完整叶绿体基因组将为加速育种，生物技术和系统发育研究提供强大的工具。
